[After finally making it to Violet city, Yukiko had taken her Pokemon to the Center to heal them up. She'd had to wait with the Teddiursa while it was healed up as it wouldn't let go of her, and had taken a seat while her Vulpix, Hoppip and new Charizard had been taken to be healed as well. Needless to say, she'd passed out for quite a while, so long, in fact that a blanket had been given to her while she rested there.

Now, she's much more awake and helping out a little around the Center. It's not a paid job, as otherwise she wouldn't be able to leave right away, but it's enough so she feels like she's actually doing something.

Currently, she was tidying up the lobby, stacking magazines and wiping down tables and chairs there.]

[The door slides open, and Chie recognizes Yukiko immediately. It's impossible not to, with that long black hair, that grace that Chie's always envied, just a tiny bit. Seeing someone on the screens of the Pokégears is always completely different from seeing them in person, and it makes Chie's heart jump up into her throat.]

Yukiko -- [Her friend's name escapes her before she can help it, coming out louder than she intended. As the scattered people in the center glance in her direction, Chie freezes up, suddenly overtaken by awkwardness. All she can do is wait at the door for Yukiko to see her.]

[It wasn't until she actually heard her name being called out that Yukiko noticed Chie had arrived, so even if it was a little awkward, it was a good thing she had. She was still a little bruised up from her... cave adventure, but she smile widely as soon as she saw her best friend in the flesh.

It was much nicer than a video screen.]

Chie! [People started shuffling out of the way to stare at the two, but that was alright, because they didn't need to stay in the lobby necessarily. Yukiko was staying there as she'd pretty much almost ran out of money by now. Buying clothes had taken most of hers, and the Inn at Violet was more expensive than Cherrygrove. Especially for a few nights.

Despite that, she looks alright anyway.]

[Chie's already forgetting that there's anybody else in the lobby. She steps forward toward Yukiko, a weak smile tugging at her own lips in response. The little bruises still make her want to cringe, but Yukiko made it through that trouble just fine. She's strong, she always has been... but that doesn't make Chie want to protect her any less.]

Hey. [She lifts up a hand to wave as she gets close, unusually subdued for Chie.] Great to see you again. Hope I didn't make you wait too long?
